tomorrow's breakfast; corned beef hash with a couple sunny side up eggs, and leftover soda bread, toasted. Black coffee, as it should be. Best thing going the day or two after St Pat's Day...have to get up earlier to fry it up, but already have everything chopped and ready to go...

Ann - I agree with them--love makes a huge difference. One of the best breakfast "burgers" I ever had had the same ingredients as fast food, too: sausage (as the burger), egg, cheese, (okay--AND bacon) on a roll, but it rocked!! And it was made by hand.

CC - Two years ago the event was two weeks earlier in April, but I think that was an anomaly.

Mmmmm... You would be my favorite Auntie! I used to make fried matzos for my niece and nephew (which they loved)--that was from my dad's heritage. They go really well with bacon, too (from my mom's side.).

In Milwaukee, a german restaurant, Maders, serves reuban egg rolls. Very good. And at another local, FABULOUS place,McBobs, they have a similar item. Very, very good. Gotta come to Milwaukee, lovetobake..... And pnwchef-fantastic looking breakfast. You seem to make your eggs exactly as i like them.

Hahaha... pnw! Maybe we could roll the rye bread REALLY thin and get away with it.

Egg Roll and Egg Creams Festival sounds like a great event, CC. And I can just picture people speaking those two languages--hilarious! I want a dessert egg roll.

Ann - That's part of the country I definitely want to spend time in. I've tended to travel I-80, I-40, and I-10, but should branch out. Wisconsin makes maple syrup, too (happening now!), which is my "drug of choice." Mmmmmmm....

My husband makes it and it is so simple! Basically you make a white sauce (butter, flour & milk) and add hard cooked eggs that have been mashed, salt and pepper. So delicious! I love it on biscuits but my husband likes it over toast which is how he grew up eating it.
